I have been using TWRP+SuperSU on my HTC 10 (sprint). However, I am not happy not being able to use Android Pay due to root. I searched and found a MAGISK root can do the trick.. I searched and was surprise to find not much of info on this variant.
I only found this: [ROOT] Magisk AutoRoot: Magisk + phh's SuperUser for Nougat (No TWRP required). But that's for the Unlocked version:
Prebuilt Boot Images:
US Unlocked: US_Unlocked_2.28.617.8_boot.zip
I assume I cannot use above boot image for Sprint variant. My question is, where to get this prebuilt boot image for Sprint?
I am on Android 7.0 (2.42.651.6).
Thanks!!

Thank you. I am following the guide you provided..
"If you're not rooted, or something went wrong and you need a clean start
(Recommended) Restore your boot image back to stock
Download the latest Magisk zip file
If you choose to use SuperSU (only support Android 6.0+), first flash SuperSU in systemless mode
Flash Magisk zip
Reboot, and update the stub Magisk Manager to the latest from Play Store
"
Can you please let me know how to Flash Magik zip? I am on Stock Android 7.0 by RUU. Custom Recovery (TWRP) is gone... Downloading to download mode does not have an option to install zip.... Install Magisk Manger gives me this.. Still requires boot image? Thanks.

Try my post from the Bad Boyz ROM thread. I'm pretty sure that covers it all. If you're already RUU'd you can skip that part, but you will need to unlock your bootloader if you haven't already. I think that factory resets the phone. There's another thread on how to do that via HTCDev that should be stickied, but the process is easy.

Edit: I see you're already in the process on the other thread. Good luck!

Hello I'm on 6.0.1 Bad Boyz and I flash this but it doesnt root my phone, I used un-su.zip beforehand
Edit nevermind I RUU'd to Android 7.0 and flashed Bad Boyz Magisk!!!
Hi guys, I have successfully rooted using temporary TWRP + modded magisk method, but now I gain root and checked via Root checker. But the problem is most of the root functions don't work as /system is read-only. Any idea?
Ya i have an idea.. Happened to me as well. I tried almoat everything but system won't be accessible anywhere.. I followed the same tutorial and installed magisk 13.4.
The only solution i could find was flash the latest factory image, and root again using supersu. I used the AIO tool by ghpranav and have got my phone rooted with xposed working without any issues.

I also fixed the issue. I flash the modified boot image and I am now gaining proper root access + Xposed. Get it working using Super SU, idk why Magisk keep failing thou. Was wanted to give Magisk a try, but it doesn't work properly on our device.
Cool:good:
Xposed isn't working with magisk? I was planning to install it

Guys, this is Magisk from Pixel. You can't expect that it is working. I wrote to MagiskDevs already, they are working on a own Version for Mi A1. Use for that time normal SuperSU (Xposed works normally )
how to??

You need flash back stock boot image first, due to some limitations you can't have TWRP and SuperSU root at the same time. If you don't have the stock boot image. I suggest download the ROM from MIUI and then flash it. You can choose "flash_all_except_storage" option, this will keep your data.
http://en.miui.com/download-333.html
After flashing. Reboot back to fastboot and then:
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
After that just run root.bat from the cf-auto root folder you downloaded and wait for it to automatically reboot your phone. You should have root now, if you wish you can download SuperSU from the store.

I actually tried before, and I tell you the results:
Option 1 TWRP installed + Rooted with Magisk
= Pretty much useless as /system is read-only. Every root app doesn't function, unless it is system-less. But system-less modules nearly all doesn't work as the Magisk version too old. And this method won't trip safetynet
Option 2 no TWRP + Rooted with SuperSU (cf-root method) -- Currently using this state
= Got proper root access, Xposed works but will trip safetynet
Option 3 TWRP installed + Rooted with SuperSU (cf-root method)
= Don't try this, will cause your phone stuck in boot loop

The best bet and possible trouble free is to first download the stock ROM from MIUI, reflash it and then root.

No, it will cause your phone stuck it boot loop if you try to flash the SuperSU zip directly from the official ChainFire site. I think probably is the AB partitioning problem or some sort (unsure). As I said you need to run CF-Auto root to get proper root access, otherwise flashing Magisk through TWRP will makes most of the root apps does not work properly unless it also uses system-less root function.

No if you want proper root with CF-auto root you must not have TWRP installed. You either choose TWRP + Magisk (non-working root) or no TWRP but with SuperSU (working root, Xposed works too).

Hi,
So I'm just step before unlocking Bootloader and flashing Magisk but the question is - will I be able to install OTA updates directly from android without triggering bootloop?

I'm not 100% sure but I think once you obtain root OTAs won't get applied because you would have flashed custom recovery while getting root access.

Alright so the full zip will be auto downloaded if there's something modified. Can it detect magisk and replace the boot image as well since it's not a system modification?
Is anyone having issues installing the OTA?
My device saw the update but when I hit install I get "Couldn't update installation problem" I have Magisk installed on the Tmobile oneplus 6T and I've tried to update after removing Magisk but it did not work, please advise.

Uninstall magisk and then try installing the OTA, if no go, flash the unmodified fastboot files and then try again.

As long as you don't hide system updates in Magisk hide system will prompt and download full zip instead of incremental and upon flash the full zip it will replace the boot to stock boot.

Uninstall Magisk and download and install full zip, you may require t-mobile certitied full zip if the global does not work so make sure you download from the system instead of the links floating around which will be the global rom.
I have read many threads and lots of videos and cannot seem to get the Magisk installed.
I have flashed back to stock many times with (N900VVRUEOF1_N900VVZWEOF1_N900VVRUEOF1_HOME.tar.md5) in order to try multiple methods.
Rooted with Arabictoolapp - used rootchecker to verify/application also says true for root
followed: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ve...guide-ob6-of1-root-bootloader-unlock-t3439010
installed SU from playstore to unlock bootloader using the adp method - shows developer mode to verify - using eMMc to verify CID starts with 15
followed: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ve...l/official-note-3-verizon-bootloader-t3359370
installed twrp using official twrp app & also tried ODIN in another trial (picked verizon americas and got twrp-3.2.3-0-hlte.img.tar and twrp-3.2.3-0-hlte.img )
turned phone off and boot into recovery to verify; at this time i created a recovery
using MagiskManager i downloaded the zip (Magisk-v18.1.ip) and flashed using twrp - no errors but when i restart the phone it says Magisk not installed
next attempt was to extract the boot.img from the stock OF1 and then flash the Magisk - no errors but when i restarted the phone it says the same thing - Magisk not installed
another attempt was to patch the boot.img and got a patch_boot.img then using TWRP i flashed the patch_boot.img - restarted and magisk not installed
after further digging, i tried another method which was to unroot using SU, reboot, go into recovery to then install Magisk - magisk not installed
*note each attempt to install Magisk unrooted my phone
*was able to use Magisk-uninstaller-20190204.zip to uninstall Magisk manager from recovery - icon went away
anyways i am completely stuck now. any suggestions or comments on my approach?

Did you uninstall SU before trying to install magisk. The two together may cause conflict.

Try twrp 2.8.7 hltevzw. You are using the stock ROM which is android 5. Twrp 3.1 and higher is for android 7 and up. I missed that the first time I read your post.

what do you mean after normal reboot? so flash magisk in twrp. reboot. reboot again then install magisk manager? do you know what version of magisk i should run and where i can find the dl link?
What he means is you install the Magisk ZIP via TWRP in Recovery mode, reboot the phone, then you install Magisk Manager via the APK.
Go to magiskmanager dot com website which has the ZIP installer plus the APK for the Manager.
I only just recently tried to tackle this challenge. I also installed 0F1 with Odin, then rooted with Arabic. I was messing with Pokemon go and it wasn't happy I was rooted. I downloaded magisk manager, installed it that way. At reboot, angry message from Verizon that I have custom software and phone won't boot. I assume this is because I didn't install custom recovery.
If you figure a way to get this done, I will be grateful. One thing I don't quite follow. Magisk is a root method...so should we really be rooting the phone prior? Seems redundant and going against the whole point of magisk. Right?
I wanted to play around with spoofing GPS with PGO which requires making a GPS spoofer a system app (need root for that). Is that still possible using magisk?
I'll post any updates I have as well.
Dears, what is the correct procedure to install OTA updates if you are rooted? I mean without losing MAGISK & TWRP.

Run update - dont reboot , launch magisk and add twrp.zip as a module - dont reboot , in magisk home "window" press install (on top) then press install to second slot (OTA) - reboot
